During Easter weekend, my family and I got to celebrate the first birthday of our dear friends’ Stella and Sean’s daughter, Josephine. Knowing Stella’s personal style and stellar attention to detail, I jumped at the chance to feature her party on our modest blog. Luckily, Stella was happy to oblige my request and not only threw a beautiful celebration in honor of sweet Josephine but was more than happy to share her vendor information. Lucky us!

You, too, can be the recipient of such visionary creations if you go to Top Cloud (their website at the time of this post is broke broke broke), located in Duluth, Georgia. This particular waffle is covered in chocolate, caramel, powdered sugar, and ice cream. So. Good. I really appreciated the fact that they put the toppings on the side so the waffle didn’t get soggy. Soggy waffles are like soggy fries: gross.

A few years ago, a friend of mine taught me how to make a quick and dirty version of this treat. All you need are two toasted “Leggo my Eggo” waffles and ice cream of your choice. Step 1: Scoop a giant serving of ice cream. Step 2: Smush giant scoop of ice cream between two waffles. Tada! Homemade ghetto ice cream sandwich. Mind blown. But as good as that version is, Top Cloud’s version is much, much, better (and prettier too!).

Here is a blurry picture of our healthy (it has fruit so how can it be bad for you?) waffle. The picture quality is quite subpar because I was in a rush to eat it and my dessert companions were ready to pounce. Every man for himself!

The aftermath

Because this dessert involves waffles, I’m thinking it is perfectly acceptable for breakfast. Who’s with me?!

Atlanta is no stranger to Asian Bakeries, which are typically cute and tasty experiences where large posse gatherings don’t get the evil eye as they often do at Starbucks from those moody freelancers who made the mistake of leaving headphones at home. In that regard, Honey Bits Taiwanese Bakery does not disappoint; spacious, under crowded and providing the standard fare, Jin and I made out like bandits with our mobile Scoutmob (one of the darlings of Atlanta startups) applied to already cheap prices. =)

Were the Bits o’ Honey as delightful as anticipated? Find out more after the jump!
